A Golden Gate man and an East Naples woman are accused of breaking into a local bowling alley and stealing bottles of liquor.

Deputies said they found a large black bag full of the liquor bottles lying next to Komatz and Gillspie. Also inside the bag was black gloves, a blue torn shirt tied in a knot, a black sweatshirt, binoculars, a screwdriver, and two cell phones.

Deputies also located more liquor bottles in the wooded area along with a pry bar and pink tennis shoes, according to reports.

The number of liquor bottles that were stolen was redacted from reports.
